Cottages in the South of the Isle of Man
Whether it’s a slice of history or scenic landscapes you’re looking for on your Isle of Man holiday, the Island’s South is the ideal choice. Delve into the Island’s history with a visit to Castletown, where you can explore medieval Castle Rushen, and pay a visit to the Nautical Museum.
If it’s nature and wildlife you’re looking for, explore the 128 hectares of South Barrule Forest, a fantastic place for mountain biking and walking. The Sound is located on the southern tip of the Island and promises panoramic views across to the Calf of Man. Keep your eye out here for dolphins or basking sharks! Being one of the 26 registered Dark Sky Discovery Sites, The Sound is a brilliant place for stargazing. From here, you can walk to Port Erin or Port St Mary for a blissful beach day. Oh, and not forgetting the iconic Fairy Bridge located in the South of the Island, where Island tradition says you must say hello to the fairies as you cross it.
Planning an Isle of Man break? We’ll redirect you to our sister company, Island Escapes, but you can hop back anytime to keep exploring UK getaways.
Our exclusive ferry discounts of up to 25% will make your island trip with Classic plain sailing.

Fully equipped cottages
All of our cottages have a standard list of equipment that goes above and beyond. As well as fluffy towels and readymade beds, our bare minimum includes everything you’ll need and more, from plenty of teaspoons to added extras such as gravy boats so no matter where you stay, you’ll be able to make your favourite home-cooked dishes.
Each inventory is regularly checked and counted so you won’t be stuck without a ladle and can leave your hairdryer at home, plus you’ll find a starter set of toiletries and cleaning products so you can get on with your holiday.
